I'm sure the guy feels pretty embarrassed about the whole situation, so I can't imagine we'll be seeing any knock off pendants or artwork at Oasis. If he just came out and spoke on the issue, it would probably resolve any confrontations at Oasis or future shows. Either admit fault, and offer some sort of apology, or explain how the designs got to the carvers. I don't think anybody would hold a grudge forever if he came clean. Either way, I don't think a heated confrontation will get anywhere. He will end up explaining his story a million times though if he doesn't here or to Paipo first if he shows up at these events.
